The title compound was allowed to react with p-aminoacetophenone followed by condensation with benzaldehyde to give chalcone which is used in the preparation of new compounds containing the pyrazoline, isoxozoline, pyrimidone and pyrimidine thione moiety through its reaction with hydrazines, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, urea and thiourea. The product of p-aminoacetophenone when treated with bromine - acetic acid mixture gave the dibromo derivative which on reaction with thiourea gave the 2-aminothiazole derivative. The reaction of the title compound with sulfanilamide is also described.
